It’s unclear what’s happening in the photos Kaling posted to social media, but here’s our theory: Mindy, whom Kaling has already stated will be divorced from new husband Ben in the upcoming season, goes on a Lorelai Gilmore-inspired Wild hiking trip and winds up lost, delirious from hunger and sheltering in a cave, where she has a vision of the effervescent Witherspoon (who, herself, played Wild author Cheryl Strayed, in the 2014 movie of that book). It’s not so far from plausible, given that Mindy will have a lot to think about in the series’ final run of episodes: As previously reported, Chris Messina will return as Danny for multiple episodes.

“We aren’t super interested in [tying everything up in a bow],” Kaling has said of the series finale. “We’re trying to avoid [that], while also leaving the audience with the sense that [Mindy] had some growth.”
